No Buddies Land is a 1991 platform game developed by Expose Software and published by Loriciel. The game's developer, Expose Software, included members of the Atari demoscene,[1] and the game featured vertical scrolling and digitized audio,[2] which were technically innovative at the time.[1] Upon release, No Buddies received mixed reviews, with critics praising the visual presentation of the game, but faulting the simple gameplay and high difficulty.
The game is a platformer where players are Bud, who must climb a tower into the clouds to reverse a curse, leading the land to be flooded.[3] The objective of the game is to vertically ascend six levels to the top, avoiding traps, enemies, and a slowly rising water level that requires the player to keep moving.[4][3]
